Real Assets & Private Equity

Private markets saw major fund activity as Nuveen approached its target of $2.5 billion for its EPIC II infrastructure vehicle, nearing a second close around the $2 billion mark. This comes as competitors adjusted strategy; Carmel Partners secured $1.35 billion for its ninth U.S. multifamily fund, explicitly pivoting toward acquiring and upgrading existing operating assets rather than ground-up development due to shifting return profiles. Meanwhile, within infrastructure, InfraVia significantly expanded its power sector exposure via a major deal, while Foresight appointed a new head of real assets to steer its investment mandate.
